Hi friends,
Why the battery dischargers are so heavy?
Thank you very much

Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around the weight of battery dischargers, particularly in the context of industrial applications. Participants explore reasons for the heaviness of these devices, including the components involved and their operational requirements.
Discussion Character
- Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested
Main Points Raised
- One participant questions the definition of a battery discharger and asks for clarification on its weight.
- Another participant mentions that a specific battery discharger weighs only a few grams, suggesting variability in weight among different types.
- A later reply provides a link to an industrial battery discharger and explains that the weight can reach up to 60 kg due to the need for multiple resistors to handle high currents, such as 100 A.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants do not reach a consensus on the weight of battery dischargers, as there are differing views on the weight of specific models and the factors contributing to their heaviness.
Contextual Notes
The discussion highlights the dependence on specific definitions and types of battery dischargers, as well as the unresolved nature of the weight claims made by participants.

Welcome to the PF.
What's a battery discharger? Can you post a link to one? Why do *you* think they might be heavy?

Dear Beckerman;
Find here a link so you can see an industrial battery discharger.
Battery dischargers are a group of batteries for discharging industrial batteries, since currents are high (100 A for example) a lot of resistors are needed and the equipment can weight 60 kg.
